Options:

Agra

Jaipur

Fatehpur Sikri

Shahjahanabad

Answer: Fatehpur Sikri

The 54,000-square-meter IIMB complex, built on a 100-acre campus, is based on Akbar’s 16th-century Fatehpur Sikri design. B V Doshi, the architect, realised this vision by connecting a network of corridors, courtyards, and external spaces that allow for future expansions.
